So I just got my new 2.5" USB HDD Enclosure made by IBM. So I pop my old 20GB Hitachi drive into it. Now when I plug it in it recognizes both the USB Adapter the the hard disk (which gets listed under drives in Device Manager). However the problem is that Window XP Professional sees it as a USB Mass Storage device and I can't find out a way to access it. The only CD included only has 9x drivers (presuming that XP would work) and Windows Update doesn't report any new drivers to be downloaded. Win CAN see the hard drive inside the USB Mass Storage Device (I can view it's status, change it's caching settings, etc.) but it won't let me access it (due to the USB Mass Storage Driver?) The manual is in some kind an Asian language that I can't read.
Help!!

EDIT: Oops, turned out I had to format and initiliaze the disk in Computer Management... I feel stupid.
